Applications are now open for the Ibrahim Sjarief Assegaf Fellowships
Melbourne Law School (MLS) is pleased to announce the inaugural Ibrahim Sjarief Assegaf Fellowships, supported by the generosity of Assegaf Hamzah & Partners (AHP), one of Indonesia’s leading law firms.
The Fellowships honour the life and legacy of Ibrahim Sjarief Assegaf (1971–2025), an alumnus of Melbourne Law School, founder of Indonesia’s first online legal database, and a managing partner of AHP. An outstanding lawyer, legal scholar and activist, he made profound and enduring contributions to law reform in Indonesia.

MLS now invites expressions of interest for a Visiting Fellow (Postdoctoral Level) (up to 6 months) and a Visiting Fellow (up to 3 months), who will be resident at the Melbourne Law School in 2026. They will be hosted by CILIS, the only university research centre outside Indonesia that is dedicated to Indonesian law. The Fellows will be provided with a workspace, research supervision and access to the University of Melbourne library collections, electronic resources and computing facilities.
